Chapter 1467: True secret
In the shroud of darkness above, not a single star could be seen.
Reneedol stood in the middle of the group, silently waiting for a while.
“How much longer?” she asked.
“One more minute” the Foresight Deity replied.
Everyone became tense.
“What do you think it will be?” one of the others couldn’t help but ask.
The third person answered: “I can’t tell, but since it could break through the Reality Gate, it——-”
“Shut up!”
Reneedol abruptly scolded them in a strict manner.
The third person quickly went quiet.
“What’s going on, did you forget even the most basic level of caution?” Foresight Deity asked.
“Sorry, I forgot, this place isn’t the Dusty World of the Realm of Death” the person hurriedly apologized.
Everyone else then pulled their gazes away from him.
They no longer said anything after that, opting to silently wait.
The orange cat was hiding at a short distance, curiously wagging his tail.
What exactly did he want to say?
When he apologized, he even mentioned that this wasn’t the Dusty World…
Come to think of it, the Twine of Cloud Atlas on my hand was related to the Dusty World somehow, but the giant corpse confirmed that it had nothing to do with the Pantheon.
I can easily draw a conclusion from that:
The Pantheon was part of the Dusty World, but not the other way around.
So, what exactly is it that these guys from the Pantheon couldn’t say in the Realm of Life?
“It’s time!”
Reneedol suddenly declared.
Gu Qing Shan’s thoughts were cut off.
He looked at them, only to see that all four of them were looking at the sky.
“Why hasn’t it arrived?” Reneedol asked.
“My foresight isn’t necessarily always pinpoint accurate, there might be a tiny deviation in time, but this is definitely the location” Foresight Deity replied.
“Hurry, look——” one of the others suddenly shouted.
The sky abruptly lit up.
A bright light seemed to be flickering within the deep darkness.
Almost immediately, the light broke through the shroud of darkness above to fully reveal itself.
It was a gigantic interstellar wars.h.i.+p as big as the sky itself!
It was completely engulfed in flames, already falling apart as it appeared.
“A Technological artifact——- so it was a Technological artifact that managed to break through the Reality Gate!” Reneedol spoke incoherently.
“We’re going to go back to developing science and technology!” one of the others exclaimed.
They were all hysterical.
The Foresight Deity loudly shouted: “No, take a closer look, the s.h.i.+p is about to be done for! There are at least a few hundred Apocalypses pursuing it!”
In a few short seconds, the entire interstellar wars.h.i.+p broke apart in the sky and was completely destroyed.
Each of its components had been thoroughly ravaged by the Apocalypse, the hull of the s.h.i.+p crumbled into dust in the sky without a single trace.
“Was it completely destroyed?” Reneedol asked.
“No, something must have remained!” the Foresight Deity said.
A few moments later, from within the recovering shroud of darkness, a meteor rapidly streaked across the sky as it descended towards the group.
It fell slower and slower until it was slightly hovering in the barren wasteland just a bit away from their positions.
Reneedol brought the three Deities and slowly approached it.
They eventually stood around the object.
Even after a few moments, it still hasn’t reacted at all.
“What exactly is this thing?” Reneedol asked.
No one answered her.
Everyone was staring at the artifact, but none of them knew how to answer.
——it was a dark blue metal sphere with two unique patterns engraved onto the outside.
“Foresight Deity, you understand Technological artifacts better than I do, what is written here?” Reneedol asked.
The Foresight Deity took a careful look, then shook his head: “It’s probably some sort of written language, but I’ve never seen it before”
The other two also shook their heads, signaling that they didn’t understand the situation either.
“This came from the civilization outside the Reality Gate, we need to know what it represents” Reneedol spoke in annoyance.
At this point, the orange cat had also approached and saw those two words.
His eyes reflected complicated emotions.
The Myriad Deities of the Pantheon doesn’t understand these words, but he instantly recognized it at a glance despite arriving from the future.
——because it was written using the most common human language in the future.
[Human realm]
It was these two very mundane words.
Human… realm…
What does ‘Human realm’ represent?
Numerous answers flashed through Gu Qing Shan’s mind until he finally arrived at a conclusion.
But he still couldn’t believe it.
Because if this was as he had a.s.sumed, then it would be too shockingly unbelievable.
Time slowly pa.s.sed.
The Foresight G.o.d picked the blue metallic sphere up in his hand, carefully examined it, then mused: “Technological artifacts tend to emphasize safety, efficiency, and responsiveness. I think we should try asking it something, maybe we’ll get an answer”
Reneedol replied: “Go ahead”
The Foresight Deity asked the blue sphere: “Where did you come from?”
No answer.
The Foresight Deity then tried asking: “How did you get here?”
It was still completely silent; the blue sphere didn’t move or react to him at all.
The Foresight Deity still didn’t give up, carefully thought about it, then continued to ask: “What kind of Technological product are you?”
[Ting]———
The blue sphere began to let out a few rays of glittering light.
A melodious female voice then resounded and began to speak with an unusual rhythm:
[h.e.l.lo everyone, deduction of your language has been completed, currently at 31.56983% comprehension. The following explanation has been made:]
[During this collision, I have suffered considerable damage, the level of damage had far surpa.s.sed the limit of recovery]
[Please place me at a location where I can absorb energy]
[Due to the number of damaged components and lack of replenis.h.i.+ng components, the duration of this repair cannot be determined]
[Entering forced hibernation after the countdown]
[3]
[2]
[1]
[Now entering hibernation mode, I will not be able to provide any answers from this point on, my apologies]
The glow of the blue sphere disappeared completely.
At this point, it had become no different from a rock.
The world was completely silent.
Everyone was deeply pondering its speech.
The orange cat that was hiding in the shadows was completely frozen.
It was as if he had been struck in the heart by something completely unimaginable, to the point that he didn’t know how to react.
“As expected, it was a Technological artifact” Reneedol spoke up first.
“Even when that entire giant shuttle had been destroyed by the Apocalypse, it still managed to remain, I suspect that it might have been the most crucial component” the Foresight Deity said.
He carefully put the blue sphere away and said: “This artifact is one clue, but we can’t only pay attention to it alone. There will be more objects falling into the Realm of Life, we need to keep up our spirits to not let any clues fall through our hand”
“Very well, we’ll continue to proceed in that manner” Reneedol said.
She calculated the time that had pa.s.sed and said: “My spell is about to wear off, I need to return to the camp soon——– look for a chance tomorrow to ‘accidentally’ run into that group and join me”
“How should we do that?” the Foresight Deity asked.
Reneedol paused briefly before beginning to arrange tomorrow’s matter.
“Here’s what you should do…”
The three Deities of the Pantheon stood silently as they listened to her plan.
Gu Qing Shan didn’t try to eavesdrop.
Reneedol’s spatial technique is extremely potent, so Gu Qing Shan needs to return before she does!
Gu Qing Shan was rapidly heading back through the wilderness the same way he arrived.
By continuously using [Shadow s.h.i.+ft], he rapidly traversed a large distance and returned to camp.
After returning to human form, he leaned on a nearby tree.
——it took everything he had to act like he was sound asleep.
This was because everything he witnessed earlier had caused immense disturbance in his heart, and the more he thought about it, the more impossible and grander he found this secret to be.
Never before had Gu Qing Shan sensed such a thing.
——he felt that he had just arrived at a certain gigantic and profound secret.
This secret had been hidden in the obscured history, and it wasn’t until just now that a tiny hint of it was revealed to him.
There were definitely no mistakes.
That voice that came from the blue metallic sphere was definitely Impartial G.o.ddess.
Impartial G.o.ddess originated from outside the Reality gate!
——not only that, the characters of [Human realm] were written outside her sh.e.l.l.
She came from the Samsara.
In other words, it was the Samsara that broke through the Reality Gate!
